Audit Analysis

A small hydro avoidance project in Brazil with VVB-confirmed additionality and no material findings, but undermined by multiple internal contradictions in ERR figures, grid emission factors, and leakage treatment. The 0% leakage deduction lacks a coherent justification, and four corrective actions flag calculation errors in the monitoring report. Overall a moderate-quality project with notable data reliability concerns.

Red Flags

  • ERR figures contradict within the same verification report (196,522 vs 44,107) and within the monitoring report (196,522 vs 56,202), creating ambiguity about the true credit quantity
  • Grid emission factor contradicts within the monitoring report (0.31 vs 0.3593), a 16% discrepancy that directly affects credit calculation
  • Leakage deduction of 0% is justified as both 'not addressed' and 'deemed negligible' in the same verification report, leaving the basis unclear
  • Four corrective actions in the verification report identify calculation errors (Infomercado day-count, EGy values, net energy generation mismatches with CCEE data)
